Operate only from a power source indicated on

the unit or in this manual. If necessary, have

your Electric Utility Service Company or Video

POLARIZED PLUG CAUTION:

This plug will only fit into an outlet one way. If you cannot fully insert the plug, try reversing it. If it still will not fit, have an electrician install the proper wall outlet. Do not defeat the safety feature by tampering with the plug.

GROUNDING PLUG CAUTION:

This plug will only fit into a three-hole grounding outlet. If necessary, have an electrician install the proper outlet. Do not defeat the safety feature by tampering with the plug.

Make sure power cords are routed so that they

2KEEP ANTENNA CLEAR OF HIGH VOLTAGE POWER LINES OR CIRCUITS

An outside antenna system should be located well away from power lines, electric light or power circuits and where it will never come into contact with these power sources if it should happen to fall. When installing an outside antenna, extreme care should be taken to avoid touching power lines, circuits or other power sources as this could be fatal. Because of the hazards involved, antenna installation should be left to a professional.

USING THE VIDEO UNIT

If the unit has been in storage or moved to a new location, refer first to the INSTALLATION section of these safeguards.

Overloaded outlets and extension cords are fire

hazards and should be avoided.

4 DO NOT BLOCK VENTILATION HOLES

Ventilation openings in the cabinet release heat

generated during operation. If they are blocked,

heat build-up inside the unit can cause failures

that may result in a fire hazard or heat damage

to cassettes. For protection, follow these rules:

a. Never cover ventilation slots or the unit while

in use, or operate the unit when placed on a

bed, sofa, rug, or other soft surface.

b. Avoid built-in installation, such as a book

During a lightning storm, whether indoors or outdoors, or

before leaving the unit unused for extended periods of time,

disconnect all equipment from the power source as well as

the antenna and cable system.

4 WHEN THE UNIT IS PLUGGED IN

• Never expose the unit to rain or water. DO NOT

OPERATE if liquid has been spilled into the unit.

Immediately unplug the unit, and have it inspected by a

service technician. Fire and shock hazards can result from

electrical shorts caused by liquid contact inside.

• Never drop or push any object through openings in the

unit. Some internal parts carry hazardous voltages and

contact can cause electric shock or fire hazard.

• Avoid placing the unit directly above or below your TV set

5 AVOID EXTREMELY HOT LOCATIONS OR

SUDDEN TEMPERATURE CHANGES

Do not place the unit over or near any kind of

heater or radiator, in direct sunlight, inside a

closed vehicle, etc.. Do not move the unit

suddenly between areas of extreme temperature

variation. If the unit is suddenly moved from a

cold place to a warm place, moisture may

condense in the unit and on the tape.

6 TO AVOID PERSONAL INJURY

• Do not place unsecured

equipment on a sloping

surface.

• Do not place this unit on any support that is not firm, level, and adequately strong. The unit could fall causing serious injury to a child or adult and

 

as this may cause electrical interference. Keep all

 

magnets away from electronic equipment.

5

USING ACCESSORIES

 

Use only accessories recommended by the manufacturer to

 

avoid risk of fire, shock, or other hazards.

6

CLEANING THE UNIT

 

Unplug the unit. Then, use a clean, dry, chemically

 

untreated cloth to gently remove dust or debris. DO NOT

 

USE cleaning fluids, aerosols, or forced air that could over-

 

spray, or seep into the unit and cause electrical shock. Any

 

substance such as wax, adhesive tape, etc. may mar the

 

cabinet surface. Exposure to greasy, humid, or dusty areas

 

may adversely affect internal parts.
